It's an exciting day with two picks already made in the 2025 IOD! 

However, my teams don't pick for a while, so I might as well try again to reignite the hot stove, which has been frozen solid since the FA auction almost 2 weeks ago. 

Deadwood is seeking a certified lefty-masher and perhaps another useful part-time bat. They're also very interested in moving up from their first pick at 2-25. Trade bait includes closer Alexis Diaz, cash, maybe a prospect (although most are too precious). 

Austin would still like to improve their ugly team defense, particularly for CF and SS. They're also hurting for cash after overspending in the auctions. Trade bait includes lefty bat Jon Singleton, lefty arm Andrew Nardi, maybe young IF Thomas Saggese, and perhaps even cash.

Okay, I'll stop there for now. Congratulations to Drake Baldwin for being the 3rd player selected!
